Looking for the next step or just a boost in your workouts, why not try some creatine? Although some doctors and almost all mothers say that its is unsafe, it has 20 years of scientific research backing it. So lets take a look at creatine.

Creatine is an amino acid- produced from arginine, glycine, and mthionine. Basically it regenerates adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the skeletal muscles; ATP is responsible for muscle contraction.

Dosage: For the beginner I suggest to buy the tried and true, creatine monohydrate. I recommend 3-5g per day. I would follow a scheme such as the one below:

Workout Days:

30 mins to 1 hr before lifting: 2.5 g

Immediately after lifting: 2.5g

Off Days:

5 g with breakfast

I would suggest cycling the product with 6-8 weeks on and 2 weeks off.

If you want something to the next level, I would suggest a creatine/sugar product such as Gaspari Nutrition SizeOn.
